In Wasteland 3 you are able to modify your weapons with many different weapon mods to get better stats or some huge unique effects. In this Guide we want to show you the advantage of a weapon mod and also explain what you can expect if you decide to mod your weapon.
Most of the Weapons have a uniquie set of stats and abilities. It is hard to choose the best Weapon for your build as Wasteland 3 has a lot of them. Each weapon has an extra slot once you equip it the first time and this can be used for the variety of the weapon mods in Wasteland 3. It is very useful when you fight against your enemies either in offense and defense.
The mods can be bought from merchants or you can get it from chests, enemies by playing your way through the game. You can replace the old installed mod, however, be careful because if you decide to replace the current mod, the old mod will be destroyed once you install your new mod on your weapon.
Another part of modding your weapons is the Weapon modding skill. The skill is required for installing or change mods on your weapon. The modding levels are shown on your weapon details and with each increased level, you’ll be able to install higher mods. The modding skill can be increased by spening skill points. Each weapon has a total of 28 skill points and they are required to get all 10 levels.
